@TQW 21–22 February 2026   Vienna Whirling Hub at Tanzquartier Wien is a 10-month Dervish in Progress workshop series designed to grow a regular whirling community in Vienna. Following the spirit of our Whirling Hub journey in 2025, we now continue this pathway at TQW with a clear structure: Saturday mornings welcome newcomers and anyone wishing to refresh the basics, including the First Whirling Kiss for first-timers. Saturday and Sunday afternoons are dedicated to long DIP Whirling Sessions, with DIPup and deep practice time. Sunday mornings are the monthly chapter of the series—lecture, Q&A, and implementations—so each workshop becomes a unique step in one continuous learning arc. Open to everyone 16+, the only requirement is the desire to explore the whirling world with curiosity and commitment.   Saturday Morning: Fundamentals and the First Whirling Kiss   As in every workshop of the Vienna Whirling Hub series, we begin in the same welcoming way for newcomers and for those who wish to refresh their core understanding of whirling. We revisit the essential principles of the whirling world, and how friction, inner pressure, gravity, and the strongly felt centrifugal effect shape the environment in which whirling becomes possible. After exploring these principles, newcomers are gently guided into their first experience of whirling, which we call the First Whirling Kiss. For advanced participants, this moment also offers a unique chance to observe how other bodies learn whirling and to discover fresh layers in their own practice.   Saturday Afternoon: DIP Whirling Session   With the basics refreshed, Saturday afternoon opens into a long practice shaped by this month’s theme, Steering the Wheels. We begin to recognise that within whirling, the Body Wheel, the Emotion Wheel, and the Mind Wheel each start to spin—often at different speeds. This practice is about holding the steering: not being carried away by the power of rotation, but learning how to guide it with clarity and care. The long session begins with DIPup (a warm-up combining body-check, stretching, and take-off exercises) to activate coordination and awareness. After DIPup we enter whirling, starting slowly and rising through different tempos until reaching a physical, mental, and emotional peak (the Journey), then moving into slow down (Landing & Restart), where the body rests and resets. This full cycle forms the DIP Whirling Session, practiced in the Whirling Hub with a depth rarely possible before.   Sunday Morning: Deepening Steering the Wheels Sunday morning is dedicated to the deepening of this month’s core topic: Steering the Wheels. The session takes the form of a lecture-style presentation with Q&A, followed by Needed Implementations and Exercises. We explore the Body Wheel, Emotion Wheel, and Mind Wheel in detail—how each wheel is activated, how they influence one another, and how they can support stability rather than overwhelm. The aim is to clarify these inner steering principles more deeply than in previous years, and to make them directly applicable through practice.   Sunday Afternoon: Integration through whirling   The weekend closes with a second extended whirling session, where body, emotions, and mind are invited to move together with greater coherence. Each Sunday afternoon session begins with DIPup—body-check, stretching, and take-off exercises—to reawaken coordination and awareness. After DIPup we return to whirling, starting slowly and moving through gentle tempo changes, allowing the weekend’s theme to settle in the body. The session builds to a final soft peak and then shifts into slow down, where the body rests and integrates. This cycle completes the DIP Whirling Session and supports assimilation of the weekend’s experience.   Participation: Who can join   This programme is open to everyone aged sixteen and above. No experience is required. The only true requirement is the wish to explore this world of whirling with curiosity and courage.   Practical Information   Location: TQW (Tanzquartier Wien) Dates: 21–22 February 2026 Time: 10:30–13:30 and 14:30–18:30 Booking Link: https://www.tqw.at/en/events/dervish-in-progress-2?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=E-Mail&utm_campaign=January_Program:_Being_Moved_18122025

“The true sage knows that enlightenment is not a goal, but meaning. The greatest gift you can give yourself is your own transformation.” Lao Tzu   Dervish in Progress (DIP) is back in Istanbul after a long break. On February 27–28 and March 1, 2026, in this three-day gathering guided by Ziya Azazi, you are invited to explore body, mind, and emotion together—through spinning.   This renewed invitation carries the excitement of opening space for curious minds and kindred spirits who choose to meet in Istanbul. In Türkiye, spinning is often associated with the Mevlevi tradition and known through its historical narrative; yet at its essence, it is both an instrument of Sufism and a universal practice that appears at the heart of many spiritual lineages.   The DIP (Dervish in Progress) vision continues to grow through 30 years of artistic experience across 50 countries, and through an ongoing scientific and spiritual search. Performances, workshops, and retreats shaped by this vision have brought tens of thousands of people together worldwide. Now, with this event, we invite you into this journey of transformation.   Guided by an artist and teacher who shares spinning worldwide with a strong sense of responsibility, this workshop aims to hold space for the needs and questions of those who wish to deepen while offering a safe, clear, step-by-step roadmap for those taking their first steps. Spinning is not only movement; it can function like a pathway toward awakening. Rhythmic turning brings balance, focus, and breath onto the same axis, creating a learning field that supports the nervous system’s capacity to adapt (neuroplasticity). This is why, in DIP, technique is not tied to an outcome, but to awareness and transformation.   Throughout the workshop, we work through DIP’s core terminology and practice principles. Mechanics such as axis, gravity, friction, inner pressure, the center–periphery relationship, and safe acceleration are explored alongside physical endurance, mental clarity, and emotional regulation. Through the cycle of Learn–Implement–Become, spinning goes beyond a skill and becomes a centering practice that can be carried into everyday life.   At the heart of the guidance is a safe and sustainable learning line—maximum extension, minimum stress, and maximum breath. By the end of three days, participants gain a clearer map of both the physical and inner layers of spinning.   Event Details Location: Be Health Universe (Metro City Mall, Social Floor, Gym) Address: Esentepe Mahallesi, Büyükdere Caddesi, No 171/1, Istanbul/TR   Dates and Hours Friday, February 27, 2026: 19:00–22:00 Saturday, February 28, 2026: 11:00–17:00 Sunday, March 1, 2026: 10:00–15:00   Fees Friday only: 90 € Two-day participation: 190 € (Beginners must join from Friday.)

@TQW 14–15 March 2026   Vienna Whirling Hub at Tanzquartier Wien is a 10-month Dervish in Progress workshop series designed to grow a regular whirling community in Vienna. Following the spirit of our Whirling Hub journey in 2025, we now continue this pathway at TQW with a clear structure: Saturday mornings welcome newcomers and anyone wishing to refresh the basics, including the First Whirling Kiss for first-timers. Saturday and Sunday afternoons are dedicated to long DIP Whirling Sessions, with DIPup and deep practice time. Sunday mornings are the monthly chapter of the series—lecture, Q&A, and implementations—so each workshop becomes a unique step in one continuous learning arc. Open to everyone 16+, the only requirement is the desire to explore the whirling world with curiosity and commitment.   Saturday Morning: Fundamentals and the First Whirling Kiss   As in every workshop, we begin by welcoming newcomers and those refreshing their understanding of whirling. We revisit the essential physics—friction, inner pressure, gravity, and the strongly felt centrifugal effect. After this, newcomers enter their first whirling experience: the First Whirling Kiss, which helps them understand whirling directly through sensation. Advanced participants observe others learning, which can enrich both clarity and compassion.   Saturday Afternoon: DIP Whirling Session   The afternoon opens into a long whirling session with special attention to Body Architecture. Participants explore how the feet distribute weight; how the knees provide suspension; how the belly and butt lift inward and upward; how the spine lengthens; how the torso lowers, widens, and softens; how the arms create outward expansion; and how the head elevates gently. Through guided exercises, movement, and breath, the body is recognized as a coordinated system rather than a single object. The long session begins with DIPup (a warm-up combining body-check, stretching, and take-off exercises) to activate coordination and awareness. After DIPup we enter whirling, starting slowly and rising through different tempos until reaching a physical, mental, and emotional peak (the Journey), then moving into slow down (Landing & Restart), where the body rests and resets. This full cycle forms the DIP Whirling Session, practiced in the Whirling Hub with a depth rarely possible before.   Sunday Morning: Deepening Body Architecture and Complementaries   Sunday morning is dedicated to a detailed lecture-style presentation with Q&A, followed by Needed Implementations and Exercises, on Body Architecture and Complementaries. We examine the Aware principles of each body part, and the Complementaries including the Density Scale, active and passive transitions, 3D moving and 3D breathing, and the Three Liberations: ocular focus, vestibular system, and vocal cords. Participants embody these ideas through specific implementations, building structural clarity and increasing efficiency.   Sunday Afternoon: Integration Through Whirling   The weekend closes with a second extended whirling session where all elements explored in Body Analysis I come alive. Movement becomes more stable, open, and effortless as participants discover harmony in their bodily architecture. Each long session begins with DIPup—a warm-up combining body-check, stretching, and take-off exercises—to activate coordination and awareness. After DIPup we enter whirling, starting slowly and rising through different tempos until reaching a physical and emotional peak, then moving into slow down (Landing & Restart), where the body rests and resets. This full cycle forms the DIP Whirling Session, practiced in the Whirling Hub with a depth rarely possible before.   Participation: Who can join   This program is open to everyone aged sixteen and above. No experience is required. The only real condition is the desire to explore whirling with curiosity, commitment, and openness.   Practical Information Location: TQW (Tanzquartier Wien) Dates: 14–15 March 2026 Time: 10:30–13:30 and 14:30–18:30 Booking Link: https://www.tqw.at/en/events/dervish-in-progress-2?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=E-Mail&utm_campaign=January_Program:_Being_Moved_18122025

Transforming Through Whirling   “Whirling is not about losing balance, it’s about finding your centre.” — Dervish in Progress   We are very happy to announce that Dervish in Progress returns once more to Belgium! This workshop is made possible thanks to Eva Zabarylo, founder and director of Compagnie Bougie, and Karlien Buysse, long-time member of the Whirling World, performer, teacher, and devoted participant in D.I.P. Together they open the door again for whirling in Belgium, creating an opportunity for those curious and passionate to gather, whirl, and transform.   Dervish in Progress (D.I.P.) is not only a practice of movement, but a way of entering a wider reality. It begins with learning to listen: to the body’s signals, to the rhythm of breath, to the subtle play between balance and speed. From there, one learns how to carry these forces with trust, how to let the body rise and expand while the centre remains stable.   Beyond this physical ground lies another layer: the ability to let body, emotion, and mind flow together as if they were turning wheels. Each one adds its own voice — the strength of the body, the depth of the emotions, the clarity of the mind. When guided with intention, these voices form a single harmony, and the whirl becomes more than spinning: it becomes a state of presence.   And deeper still, the practice reveals the architecture of our being. The way we hold ourselves, the way breath flows, the way movement shapes our inner space. By understanding this inner design, we learn to whirl with less resistance and more freedom, with more grace and less effort. It is like discovering a hidden language of the body, one that speaks directly to the spirit.   Dervish in Progress is therefore both art and meditation, discipline and liberation. It expands and grounds the body, opens and releases the heart, sharpens and calms the mind. What may at first appear as disorientation becomes a new form of clarity — a trust in life, an invitation to meet the unknown with courage. Above all, it is a call to gather, to whirl together, and to witness how motion becomes transformation.   Workshop Schedule   Friday, 27 March 2026 — 19:00 to 22:00 Saturday, 28 March 2026 — 12:00 to 18:00 Sunday, 29 March 2026 — 10:00 to 16:00   Total: 15 hours of guided practice, discovery, and joyful sharing.   Early Bird Prices (valid until 31 October, after which a 15% increase will apply)   Full Rate: 290 € Support Rate: 260 € (for those in real need; we trust your honesty) Whirling Community: 250 € (whirlers with at least 10 workshops; proof required) Two Days: 220 € (for whirlers) One Day: 130 € (for whirlers)   -   The workshop builds step by step, so attending all three days is best. Beginners must start on Friday. If a beginner can only start on Saturday, they must book a 1-hour one-on-one with Ziya Azazi (€90) on Saturday before joining the group. -   If you have joined a whirling workshop before and already know the whirling instructions, you may also attend just one, or two days.   Venue   Compagnie Bougie Brusselsesteenweg 265 9090 Merelbeke-Melle, Belgium www.compagniebougie.be   Contact & Info   Karlien Buysse — +32 479 35 21 65 | karlien@niya.be Eva Zabarylo — +32 475 28 64 28 | eva@compagniebougie.be   “Whirl your body to move your heart and switch your mind.” — Dervish in Progress

Diso (LE) / Lecce – Puglia | April 3–5, 2026 (Easter weekend) Hosted by Andrea Carlino / Associazione Patr’Act • With production support from Associazione In Albera   Italy has been one of my long running Dervish in Progress homes since 2010. I have returned again and again, from north to south, meeting people through performances and workshops. Now I am happy to come back to the Lecce area for the second time, invited by my dear friend Andrea. After my previous visit with a presentation and performance, this time we meet in the studio for a three day workshop.   Who is Ziya Azazi? Ziya Azazi is a performing artist, choreographer, and teacher known internationally for his work with whirling as a contemporary stage language and as a practice of awareness. He has performed in 55+ countries and taught in 35+ countries, bringing his work into theaters, festivals, studios, and educational contexts. His approach is both artistic and human: clear physical training, strong structure, and an open, universal view of spirituality that speaks to modern life.   What is Dervish in Progress? Dervish in Progress (DIP) is the method and educational system founded by Ziya Azazi to bring the ancient culture of whirling into a clear, contemporary practice. DIP has grown internationally through performances, workshops, retreats, and talks, building a shared language for people who want to explore whirling as an active meditation. It uses simple tools to train focus, balance, breath, alignment, and safe rotation, while opening space for deeper reflection. In DIP, whirling is not only tradition and not only technique: it is a practical bridge between body, mind, and inner life.   About the workshop Dervish in Progress brings the tradition of whirling into a contemporary format that is direct and easy to enter. It is an active meditation: it moves the body, sharpens attention, and supports emotional balance. Through rotation we train stability, coordination, and breath, while creating space for inner quiet and clearer thinking. Simple steps, rich layers, deep results. Workshop structure Friday evening builds the foundation: basic principles, safety, and the first practice. Saturday and Sunday deepen the experience with Dervish in Progress tools and terminology, supporting both new and experienced whirlers in the same circle.   Who can join? Everyone is welcome if you truly feel curious to whirl and to learn.

Date: April 18 – 19, 2026 Location: Aarón Vivancos Talent Center (Av.de Valdelaparra, 63, 28108 Alcobendas)   Dervish in Progress (DIP) is a unique methodology that supports transformation on physical, mental, and spiritual levels. Inspired by the Sufi whirling (sema) tradition, this approach integrates contemporary bodywork, inviting individuals to explore and transcend themselves through the temporal, spatial, vital, and cognitive dimensions. This practice is not only a form of movement; it is also a way of insight, a leap in awareness, and a means of collective healing. Developed by Ziya Azazi and practiced in over 35 countries across hundreds of workshops during the past 20 years, Dervish in Progress invites participants to move beyond their inner cycles toward the creative potential of collective transformation. These annual workshops in Madrid are no longer just events; they are invitations, to remember, to awaken, and to engage with life more consciously and creatively. This continuity represents not only an educational commitment but also a cultural and spiritual solidarity. With each passing year, the DIP community grows, turning Madrid into a center of transformation. This is not merely a workshop in a city, but an expression of universal remembrance, human evolution, and shared becoming. This ongoing process exists thanks to those who believe in it. Eva, Aida, and Alfonso’s dedicated work, their strong faith in Dervish in Progress, and their contributions at every stage form the foundation that sustains this journey. Through their support, this workshop becomes not only a meeting guided by Ziya Azazi but a shared experience of community and presence. This gathering is not only about personal growth. It is a call to all who lead, guide, and influence, to take responsibility and move beyond the primitive “hunter-gatherer” reflex still driving many minds today. The urge to possess, accumulate, and control no longer serves the spirit of this age; it merely reflects the fear that limits our bodies. Transformation requires courage, the courage to face inner stillness, to accept change, and to share energy through love. This workshop is not about physical technique alone; it is a space where movement, intention, and heart converge. Everyone who chooses to generate their own energy, to understand themselves, and to serve humanity is part of this field.   This weekend offers a full journey — starting with the basics of the Whirling Equation for newcomers and those refreshing their practice. We then move into deep group sessions focusing on rhythm, awareness, and shared transformation. On Sunday, we explore the skirts, practice Dervish Tango, and receive feedback through body analysis. You can join individual modules, but the full program offers the deepest impact.   “Whirling is not just a movement; it is a cell awakening, a mind clearing, and a being reborn.” Ziya Azazi     Participation Full Workshop (2 days / 12 hours) Full participation: 260 € Early bird (until December 31): 230 € Whirling Community: 220 € (whirlers with at least 10 workshops; proof required)   Modular Participation Options Saturday morning (3 hours / 90 €) The Whirling Equation and a short whirling practice session (for beginners and those refreshing their knowledge).

May 1 to 3, 2026, Transforming Through Whirling   “Whirling is not an escape from life, it is a way of returning to yourself, again and again.” — Dervish in Progress   After the beautiful energy of our fully booked March workshop, we are very pleased to return to Belgium from May 1 to 3 with a new gathering. This continuation is made possible thanks to the dedication of Eva Zabarylo, founder and director of Compagnie Bougie, and the warm cooperation of my dear friend Karlien Buysse, a whirler and instructor whose clarity, sensitivity and artistic approach I deeply appreciate. I am grateful to collaborate with her in this shared effort to support all who feel connected to whirling.   At the heart of Dervish in Progress lies a simple intention: to support anyone who loves whirling, regardless of tradition, background or style. Traditional, contemporary, experimental or meditative, every colour of whirling is welcome. Many people whirl in their own way and sometimes feel they are missing certain tools or clarity. Dervish in Progress exists to serve this need by offering structure, refinement and understanding. This second workshop invites everyone who is curious, passionate or seeking depth to come together in one shared space.   “Each workshop is a meeting point of body, emotion and mind and of people who choose to grow together.” — Dervish in Progress This May gathering welcomes both newcomers and experienced whirlers. Those who could not join us in March are invited to begin here, and those wishing to refine their practice will find space to explore advanced elements and to connect more consciously with the inner architecture of the whirling body.   Dervish in Progress is a practice of listening: to breath, to balance, to the subtle forces that organise movement. Through this listening the body rises and expands while the centre remains steady and awake. Beyond the physical foundation, body, emotion and mind begin to move as interconnected wheels, forming a single harmony that transforms whirling into a state of presence. “The more we whirl, the more we understand that transformation is not sudden, it is layered, continuous and shared.” — Dervish in Progress   Through this practice we discover the internal design of the whirling body: how posture, breath and inner spaciousness organise movement, how resistance softens, and how clarity becomes possible. Whirling then becomes lighter, freer and more spacious, speaking directly to the deeper layers of our being. “Whether it is your first whirl or your hundredth, the centre you seek is the same. It is steady, silent and always waiting for you.” — Dervish in Progress   Dervish in Progress is both art and awareness, discipline and openness. It grounds the body, softens the heart and clarifies the mind. What begins as technique becomes a doorway to a more present and courageous way of engaging with life. “We return to Belgium not to repeat what we know but to open new doors each time, to refine, to soften and to expand.” — Dervish in Progress   Workshop Schedule Friday, 1 May 2026 19:00 to 22:00 Foundations for newcomers and a space for experienced whirlers to refresh and reconnect with the essentials. Saturday, 2 May 2026 12:00 to 18:00 Integration for newcomers and focused development for practitioners with experience. Sunday, 3 May 2026 10:00 to 16:00 Deepening work for all participants with both foundational and advanced explorations. Total: 15 hours of guided practice, discovery and shared understanding. On Saturday and Sunday the whole group practices together. Newcomers receive step by step support. Experienced whirlers refine advanced aspects including skirt techniques, paired whirling approaches often referred to as Dervish Tango, acceleration and deceleration organisation and detailed question and answer sessions for the fine mechanics of whirling.   Prices Early Bird prices valid until 31 December. After this date a fifteen percent increase applies. Full Rate: 290 € Support Rate: 260 € Whirling Community: 250 € Two Days: 220 € One Day: 130 € Beginners must start on Friday. If a beginner can only join from Saturday, they must book a one hour individual session with Ziya Azazi on Saturday before entering the group at a cost of 90 €. Experienced whirlers may attend one or two days if they already know the fundamentals.   Venue Compagnie Bougie Brusselsesteenweg 265 9090 Merelbeke Melle, Belgium www.compagniebougie.be   Contact and Information Karlien Buysse — karlien@niya.be Eva Zabarylo — eva@compagniebougie.be “Whirl your body to move your heart and switch your mind.” — Dervish in Progress

Agios Lavrentios · Mt. Pelion · Greece 13 – 21 June 2026   An Invitation to Transform   “Don’t be satisfied with stories, how things have gone with others. Unfold your own myth.” Rumi   Each June, we return to the village of Agios Lavrentios with growing excitement to gather around the practice of Whirling. This masterclass is becoming a yearly meeting point for those who already know this path, those who have learned to whirl, who enjoy whirling, and who feel ready to deepen their experience within the whirling world.   Set on the slopes of Mt. Pelion, surrounded by nature, silence, and history, this residency offers a focused and grounded space to slow down, listen, and refine. It is not an introduction, but an invitation to go further: to expand perception, to enrich embodied knowledge, and to experience whirling as a living, evolving practice.   Here, we whirl in order to transform. Through whirling, we strengthen physical awareness, emotional clarity, and artistic expression. This residency embraces a community of practitioners who are curious, committed, and eager to discover new layers, within themselves and within the practice.   If you feel at home in the world of whirling and wish to deepen your journey, you are warmly welcome.   “The moment you change your perception is the moment you rewrite the chemistry of your body.” Dr. Bruce Lipton   About the Masterclass   The International Dervish in Progress (DIP) Masterclass Residency is led by Ziya Azazi, founder of Dervish in Progress (DIP), and takes place from 13 to 21 June 2026 in Agios Lavrentios, Greece.   This 60-hour immersive masterclass is designed for participants who are already familiar with basic DIP terminology and who have prior experience in whirling. The focus is on deepening, refining, and integrating; physically, mentally, and artistically.   Organized in collaboration with Alexandros Seitaridis, Eleni Voyiatzidou, and Fortunati Art & Tech Company, the residency offers a concentrated environment for self-exploration, artistic growth, and shared experience.   Program Highlights   • Morning hikes & body preparation: Gentle hikes, mindfulness practices, stretching, and strength work in the natural landscape of Agios Lavrentios. • Dervish Tango: A unique exploration where traditional whirling meets tango, focusing on flow, grounding, and dynamic relationships. • Exploring the Skirts: Practical and symbolic work with skirts, enriching both technique and perception. • Performing DIP: Development of performance presence, combining precision, clarity, and personal storytelling. • Daily masterclass sessions: Two sessions per day—one focused on practical application and one dedicated to deeper experiential exploration. • Personal guidance: Space for questions, feedback, and individual refinement throughout the process. • Daily refreshments: Tea, coffee, soft drinks, and small treats to support energy and focus.   About the Residency – Accommodation & Breakfast   Participants will stay together for 8 nights in a charming old house located in the village of Agios Lavrentios.
